Directly from Instagram.

Hmm. I tried using the image icon. Must've missed some step.. Although it looks like yours uploaded to here as an image so will be using storage?

From a laptop:

See the Quick reply button? Just to the right are double arrows that take you to a full editing screen.

Takes you here. Circled icon allows you to embed the photo.

I used the icon for posting your pic. eta: Not sure if it's using storage. I pretty much followed Ax's instructions and he says it doesn't. Maybe what we're seeing is just a pointer to Instagram and not a downloaded image using storage.

The two screen shots I used in my lousy explanation are copied/pasted.

Let's try the "drag and drop" images ...

@Piano-Dad Well, that worked really easily!

Seems to have worked.

Anyone looking for a Sr PPR (Senior Personal Picture Resizer)? I've just lost my job to automation. @Piano-Dad doesn't need me anymore.

For anyone who might have problems with the size of the window that pops up when you edit a post. Happened to a couple of us who use an iPad.

About the inability to “resize” the edit window once maximized, this seems like a common NodeBB limitation (TNCR has the same issue). There is a workaround but it’s a clunky one; that is, to make NodeBB “forget” that the edit window has been “maximized.” The way to make NodeBB “forget” is to clear the cookie for this website. After removing the cookie, you will have to login again, but you will get the resizing capability back.

How do you clear cookies for just this site?

If you are on your iPad, you go to settings>safari>advanced (it’s at the bottom)>website data (at the top)>edit - and then you can either select individually (this one is under coffee/room.com) or you can get rid of all of it.

@Jodi Thanks! What a lot of cookies in that list.
